Miyares and Rouse beef
Republican Attorney General Jason Miyares and state Sen. Aaron Rouse, D-Virginia Beach, publicly beefed on social media Wednesday night. Miyares is seeking reelection this year and Rouse is seeking the Democratic nomination to run for lieutenant governor.
The beef started with Miyares calling out Rouse for legislation he filed that would provide a tax credit for employers who hire someone who has been convicted of a felony.
